We all have a problem with time.

Whether we want it to slow down or go faster.

Time really isn’t something we can control. Stuff happen, and we either say, “good timing” or “bad timing.” That’s basically all we can do. We either hate it or love it.

And in life, there are already so many things that happen. Sometimes things will just come crashing down. We start building a wall of successes and accomplishments, and something small could make all the Jenga pieces fall down. I could be very productive during the week, but at the end of the week if something happens, everything doesn’t matter anymore. That’s all the power of thoughts and bad timing.

I have been very busy in school, but I know that life always has a way to catch up to you. I have been having the best two weeks in school. I was able to wake up at either 6 or 7 am in the morning every day during the week until I couldn’t anymore. But I really needed to wake up early because it allowed me to chill and relax before my crazy day started. Especially on Wednesdays when I had 4 classes and club meetings to go to.

I would question myself and wonder why all of that comes crashing down right when I want to give myself a break. I decide to get some extra hours of sleep but then I still end up going to sleep later. When I am in the zone or moment of productivity, it will take me a while to get out. And before I even had time to wrap my head around it, it was time to go to bed two hours ago.

When you are busy and your mind is occupied with things, time goes by so fast. And depending on the person, that can be either a good or bad thing. Either way we have an opinion on it. We just can’t find the perfect timing.

Well sometimes we do. Sometimes things do come at the “right timing.” And we appreciate it so much because it can really make everything better. A friend or family member calls right when you need someone. Your class gets canceled when you were probably going to be late to class.

But that’s the root of everything. And we already passed that stage. We won’t dwell on that as much as the bad. And that’s when negativity takes over everything when it shouldn’t.

Bad times will come and good times, too. We will never have a say unless you have a time machine. And if that’s the case, please don’t tell me. Let it be your own secret.

What I am trying to say is: Because we can’t control it, live with it. Embrace the good and bad times. It’s all part of the process of learning more and more. And don’t let the bad times occupy your mind because it will never be worth it, unless you are learning from it.

I can’t stop time yet, and to be honest I really haven’t thought about it. Mistakes happen. I am human (well a little bit of a minion), so I am bound to mess up. And that is OKAY! It might come at the wrong timing, but I will make it into a good timing on my part. Because positivity and staying strong is the way to go.

Don’t let the darkness consume you. Let it out. And be happy and positive.

Peace and love.

Hello. Welcome to my crazy and strange mind. Sometimes I rant, but you just gotta go with the flow.
